Beautiful views, high standard utilities and features within, including built in speakers around bed, LED lights and an amazingly catered vegan breakfast. Really went above and beyond to make sure everything was a great experience. Great value for money.

The staff were helpful and friendly. Perfect location for access to town centre and more. Decent breakfast included in price.
Situated in Waterlooville and with Port Solent reachable within 10 km, rooms@73 features express check-in and check-out, allergy-free rooms, a garden, free WiFi and a bar.
We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
We liked the outside view, great for sunrises and sunsets.
The tea room with the fireplace was very cozy. The power shower in the room was very nice.
The hand-wash and body wash - the bottles were reused and one was dented. Very unhygienic. The spare blanket in the wardrobe was thrown onto the floor with no cover. The tea cups were dirty. No menus in the room. The room we were given hadn't been serviced in a long time. The strip that closed the wardrobe door was broken. It was only when we changed rooms that some of those things were rectified. We will not be returning. The receptionists were not interested in good customer service.

A well presented old hotel with lots of history and in parts has been kept in original condition, a smell of musty books is all around but not unpleasant as this enchanting place is centuries old, staff are friendly and on hand and food is tasty and well prresented, car park is a good size and free. However the room stayed in was slanted and repairs needed, otherwise a fair stay for the price, be wary of lots of walking stairs and noisy at night.

Havant is more of a staging post to visit other places. it has a reasonable shopping area with reasonable forms of transport available as in bus and train service.
I was using it to visit people during the time of a funeral and so it worked for me in that way

A lovely town centre market on Saturday and lots of shops. Several nice pubs serving food. Lively evening atmosphere. Large superstores near by. Lovely public park. Friendly people. Beautiful traditional buildings with pantiled roofs and a very historic feel to the town. We ate at Wetherspoons in the town centre as most people seemed to do. food and drink were excellent and good value. If we find a Wetherspoons in a different town which is a hotel we would definitely choose to stay in one.

Central parking is very good giving easy access to all local facilities. For those who wish to shop there are a lot of varied retail outlets conveniently close together. In addition there is an abundance of different style eating places to choose from.
The pedestrianised area,quiet side roads and little alleys and footpaths give it a very relaxed feel.
There are plenty of interesting old buildings and architecture here and the detailed historical sign boards and wall plaques are absolutely excellent. A little oasis for the casual walker. We loved the wonderful old oak beamed pubs and inns which are beautifully run and maintained. A credit to their brewery owners and staff.

We always book a twin room and we had a king size bed plus a single bed, and the room was very spacious and there is a connecting door to the next room if you need it. The staff are always very friendly and the food is always good with a very good choice at breakfast.
It is close to the town centre and a market on Saturdays, there is a closed in shopping centre close by and a good choice of shops all with in walking distance.
The Bear hotel is conveniently situated for trips into Portsmouth to the Historic Dockyard or to Southsea D Day Museum.
Although the decor is a little tired the amenities were good and the parking was right outside once you negotiate the one way back streets to the car park. There was a good selection of meals for dinner.
Breakfast was buffet style with the option of a full English breakfast.
The room was comfy but not lavish and there was plenty of hot water for showers or a bath.
we checked in at 1am and was met with a friendly night manager. the following morning we had a lovely breakfast. the staff again were very friendly and helpful. upon check out we required assistance with our vehicle. Main reception sent out Dave the hotels maintenance man. He, again, was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to get us sorted for our journey home.
Have stayed here many time when visiting Portsmouth,and every time the staff especially Jayne have been great.
The rooms are always clean,the restaurant has a good choice of food,the breakfast is filling.
We’ve never had an issue with cold showers unlike some other hotels.
Just enjoy staying here and good value.
WONDERFUL BREAKFAST, COOKED REALLY WELL AND THERE IS PLENTY TO EAT, LOVELY SELECTION, ROOM WAS LARGE AND EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE AND CLEAN, SMASHING HOT SHOWER, NOTHING TO FAULT AT THE BEAR HOTEL HAVANT, A REALLY GREAT STAY WILL BE BOOKING AGAIN IN THE NEAR FUTURE!!
We were organising an event and stayed at this hotel. The location is fantastic, the building and facilities were very good. I felt safe with the covid measures and one member of the staff (Marco) did as much as possible to ensure the event ran smoothly.
Lovely hotel ,friendly staff only problem was on new year's eve when there was no hot water for a shower ,but probably due to the hotel being full as not a problem on the previous days, lovely leisure facilities ,all in all a great stay
Staff were welcoming food and location great have stayed here before hence return always had a great stay
Location is great Carparking is free and easy access to lobby
Hotel was spotless very clean
Stayed at the hotel for a wedding, venue was lovely bar has a huge range of gin whiskey and runs to try. Room was very comfortable & had a fan which was great as was very warm even at winter.
i was staying at the hotel whilst my wife had surgery at the Spire Hospital in Havant. The staff were all excellent and very flexible when I had to re-book for another night.
Beds were very good, rooms spotless and a decent size, exceptionally well located in central Havant with rooms back from the road, well insulated and hence quiet
